Health and Safety Information  
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals  
Certification Information (SAR)  
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver.  
It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the  
exposure limits for radio frequency (RF) energy set by  
the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the  
U.S. government. These FCC exposure limits are  
derived from the recommendations of two expert  
organizations, the National Counsel on Radiation  
Protection and Measurement (NCRP) and the Institute  
of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). In both  
cases, the recommendations were developed by  
scientific and engineering experts drawn from industry,  
government, and academia after extensive reviews of  
the scientific literature related to the biological effects of  
RF energy.  
The exposure limit set by the FCC for wireless mobile  
phones employs a unit of measurement known as the  
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR is a measure  
of the rate of absorption of RF energy by the human  
body expressed in units of watts per kilogram (W/ kg).  
The FCC requires wireless phones to comply with a  
safety limit of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/ kg). The  
FCC exposure limit incorporates a substantial margin  
of safety to give additional protection to the public and  
to account for any variations in measurements.  
SAR tests are conducted using standard operating  
positions accepted by the FCC with the phone  
transmitting at its highest certified power level in all  
172  
 
Health and Safety Information  
tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is  
determined at the highest certified power level, the  
actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be  
well below the maximum value. This is because the  
phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels  
so as to use only the power required to reach the  
network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless  
base station antenna, the lower the power output.  
Before a new model phone is available for sale to the  
public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it  
does not exceed the exposure limit established by the  
FCC. Tests for each model phone are performed in  
positions and locations (e.g. at the ear and worn on the  
body) as required by the FCC. Body-worn operations  
are restricted to Samsung-supplied, approved, or non-  
Samsung designated accessories that have no metal and  
must provide at least 1.5 cm separation between the  
device, including its antenna (whether extended or  
retracted) and the user's body. Non-compliance with  
the above restrictions may result in violation of FCC RF  
exposure guidelines.  
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for  
this mobile phone with all reported SAR levels  
evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure  
guidelines. The maximum SAR values for this model  
phone as reported to the FCC are:  
Head: 1.22 W/kg  
Body-worn: 1.17 W/kg  
SAR information on this and other model phones can  
be viewed on-line at www.fcc.gov/ oet/ fccid. To find  
information that pertains to a particular model phone,  
Section 14: Health and Safety Information

this site uses the phone FCC ID number which is  
usually printed somewhere on the case of the phone.  
Sometimes it may be necessary to remove the battery  
pack to find the number. Once you have the FCC ID  
number for a particular phone, follow the instructions  
on the website and it should provide values for typical  
or maximum SAR for a particular phone. Additional  
product specific SAR information can also be obtained  
at www.fcc.gov/ cgb/ sar.

Consumer Information on Wireless Phones  
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has  
published a series of Questions and Answers for  
consumers relating to radio frequency (RF) exposure  
174  
   
Consumer Information on Wireless Phones  
from wireless phones. The FDA publication includes  
the following information:  
What kinds of phones are the subject of this update?  
The term wireless phone refers here to hand-held  
wireless phones with built-in antennas, often called  
“cell,” “mobile,” or “PCS” phones. These types of  
wireless phones can expose the user to measurable  
radio frequency energy (RF) because of the short  
distance between the phone and the user's head. These  
RF exposures are limited by Federal Communications  
Commission safety guidelines that were developed  
with the advice of FDA and other federal health and  
safety agencies. When the phone is located at greater  
distances from the user, the exposure to RF is  
drastically lower because a person's RF exposure  
decreases rapidly with increasing distance from the  
source. The so-called “cordless phones,” which have a  
base unit connected to the telephone wiring in a house,  
typically operate at far lower power levels, and thus  
produce RF exposures well within the FCC's  
compliance limits.  
Do wireless phones pose a health hazard?  
The available scientific evidence does not show that  
any health problems are associated with using wireless  
phones. There is no proof, however, that wireless  
phones are absolutely safe. Wireless phones emit low  
levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave  
range while being used. They also emit very low levels  
of RF when in the stand-by mode. Whereas high levels  
of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue),  
exposure to low level RF that does not produce heating  
Section 14: Health and Safety Information  
175  
effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many  
studies of low level RF exposures have not found any  
biological effects. Some studies have suggested that  
some biological effects may occur, but such findings  
have not been confirmed by additional research. In  
some cases, other researchers have had difficulty in  
reproducing those studies, or in determining the  
reasons for inconsistent results.  
What is FDA's role concerning the safety of wireless  
phones?  
Under the law, FDA does not review the safety of  
radiation-emitting consumer products such as wireless  
phones before they can be sold, as it does with new  
drugs or medical devices. However, the agency has  
authority to take action if wireless phones are shown to  
emit radio frequency energy (RF) at a level that is  
hazardous to the user. In such a case, FDA could  
require the manufacturers of wireless phones to notify  
users of the health hazard and to repair, replace or  
recall the phones so that the hazard no longer exists.  
Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA  
regulatory actions, FDA has urged the wireless phone  
industry to take a number of steps, including the  
following:  
Support needed research into possible biological effects of RF  
of the type emitted by wireless phones;  
Design wireless phones in a way that minimizes any RF  
exposure to the user that is not necessary for device function;  
and  
176  
Consumer Information on Wireless Phones  
Cooperate in providing users of wireless phones with the best  
possible information on possible effects of wireless phone use  
on human health.  
FDA belongs to an interagency working group of the  
federal agencies that have responsibility for different  
aspects of RF safety to ensure coordinated efforts at the  
federal level. The following agencies belong to this  
working group:  
National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health  
Environmental Protection Agency  
Federal Communications Commission  
Occupational Safety and Health Administration  
National Telecommunications and Information Administration  
The National Institutes of Health participates in some  
interagency working group activities, as well.  
FDA shares regulatory responsibilities for wireless  
phones with the Federal Communications Commission  
(FCC). All phones that are sold in the United States  
must comply with FCC safety guidelines that limit RF  
exposure. FCC relies on FDA and other health agencies  
for safety questions about wireless phones.  
FCC also regulates the base stations that the wireless  
phone networks rely upon. While these base stations  
operate at higher power than do the wireless phones  
themselves, the RF exposures that people get from  
these base stations are typically thousands of times  
lower than those they can get from wireless phones.  
Base stations are thus not the primary subject of the  
safety questions discussed in this document.  
Section 14: Health and Safety Information  
177  
What are the results of the research done already?  
The research done thus far has produced conflicting  
results, and many studies have suffered from flaws in  
their research methods. Animal experiments  
investigating the effects of radio frequency energy (RF)  
exposures characteristic of wireless phones have  
yielded conflicting results that often cannot be repeated  
in other laboratories. A few animal studies, however,  
have suggested that low levels of RF could accelerate  
the development of cancer in laboratory animals.  
However, many of the studies that showed increased  
tumor development used animals that had been  
genetically engineered or treated with cancer-causing  
chemicals so as to be pre-disposed to develop cancer in  
absence of RF exposure. Other studies exposed the  
animals to RF for up to 22 hours per day. These  
conditions are not similar to the conditions under  
which people use wireless phones, so we don't know  
with certainty what the results of such studies mean for  
human health.  
Three large epidemiology studies have been published  
since December 2000. Between them, the studies  
investigated any possible association between the use  
of wireless phones and primary brain cancer, glioma,  
meningioma, or acoustic neuroma, tumors of the brain  
or salivary gland, leukemia, or other cancers. None of  
the studies demonstrated the existence of any harmful  
health effects from wireless phones RF exposures.  
However, none of the studies can answer questions  
about long-term exposures, since the average period of  
phone use in these studies was around three years.  
178  
Consumer Information on Wireless Phones  
What research is needed to decide whether RF exposure  
from wireless phones poses a health risk?  
A combination of laboratory studies and  
epidemiological studies of people actually using  
wireless phones would provide some of the data that  
are needed. Lifetime animal exposure studies could be  
completed in a few years. However, very large numbers  
of animals would be needed to provide reliable proof of  
a cancer promoting effect if one exists. Epidemiological  
studies can provide data that is directly applicable to  
human populations, but ten or more years' follow-up  
may be needed to provide answers about some health  
effects, such as cancer. This is because the interval  
between the time of exposure to a cancer-causing agent  
and the time tumors develop - if they do - may be  
many, many years. The interpretation of  
epidemiological studies is hampered by difficulties in  
measuring actual RF exposure during day-to-day use  
of wireless phones. Many factors affect this  
measurement, such as the angle at which the phone is  
held, or which model of phone is used.  
What is FDA doing to find out more about the possible  
health effects of wireless phone RF?  
FDA is working with the U.S. National Toxicology  
Program and with groups of investigators around the  
world to ensure that high priority animal studies are  
conducted to address important questions about the  
effects of exposure to radio frequency energy (RF).  
FDA has been a leading participant in the World Health  
Organization international Electromagnetic Fields  
Section 14: Health and Safety Information  
179  
(EMF) Project since its inception in 1996. An influential  
result of this work has been the development of a  
detailed agenda of research needs that has driven the  
establishment of new research programs around the  
world. The Project has also helped develop a series of  
public information documents on EMF issues.  
FDA and Cellular Telecommunications & Internet  
Association (CTIA) have a formal Cooperative  
Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) to do  
research on wireless phone safety. FDA provides the  
scientific oversight, obtaining input from experts in  
government, industry, and academic organizations.  
CTIA-funded research is conducted through contracts  
to independent investigators. The initial research will  
include both laboratory studies and studies of wireless  
phone users. The CRADA will also include a broad  
assessment of additional research needs in the context  
of the latest research developments around the world.  
What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to radio  
frequency energy from my wireless phone?  
If there is a risk from these products - and at this point  
we do not know that there is - it is probably very small.  
But if you are concerned about avoiding even potential  
risks, you can take a few simple steps to minimize your  
exposure to radio frequency energy (RF). Since time is a  
key factor in how much exposure a person receives,  
reducing the amount of time spent using a wireless  
phone will reduce RF exposure.  
If you must conduct extended conversations by wireless phone  
every day, you could place more distance between your body  
and the source of the RF, since the exposure level drops off  
180  
Consumer Information on Wireless Phones  
dramatically with distance. For example, you could use a  
headset and carry the wireless phone away from your body or  
use a wireless phone connected to a remote antenna.  
Again, the scientific data do not demonstrate that  
wireless phones are harmful. But if you are concerned  
about the RF exposure from these products, you can  
use measures like those described above to reduce your  
RF exposure from wireless phone use.  
What about children using wireless phones?  
The scientific evidence does not show a danger to users  
of wireless phones, including children and teenagers. If  
you want to take steps to lower exposure to radio  
frequency energy (RF), the measures described above  
would apply to children and teenagers using wireless  
phones. Reducing the time of wireless phone use and  
increasing the distance between the user and the RF  
source will reduce RF exposure.  
Some groups sponsored by other national  
governments have advised that children be  
discouraged from using wireless phones at all. For  
example, the government in the United Kingdom  
distributed leaflets containing such a recommendation  
in December 2000. They noted that no evidence exists  
that using a wireless phone causes brain tumors or  
other ill effects. Their recommendation to limit wireless  
phone use by children was strictly precautionary; it was  
not based on scientific evidence that any health hazard  
exists.  
Section 14: Health and Safety Information  
181  
Do hands-free kits for wireless phones reduce  
risks from exposure to RF emissions?  
Since there are no known risks from exposure to RF  
emissions from wireless phones, there is no reason to  
believe that hands-free kits reduce risks. Hands-free  
kits can be used with wireless phones for convenience  
and comfort. These systems reduce the absorption of  
RF energy in the head because the phone, which is the  
source of the RF emissions, will not be placed against  
the head. On the other hand, if the phone is mounted  
against the waist or other part of the body during use,  
then that part of the body will absorb more RF energy.  
Wireless phones marketed in the U.S. are required to  
meet safety requirements regardless of whether they  
are used against the head or against the body. Either  
configuration should result in compliance with the  
safety limit.  
Do wireless phone accessories that claim to shield  
the head from RF radiation work?  
Since there are no known risks from exposure to RF  
emissions from wireless phones, there is no reason to  
believe that accessories that claim to shield the head  
from those emissions reduce risks. Some products that  
claim to shield the user from RF absorption use special  
phone cases, while others involve nothing more than a  
metallic accessory attached to the phone. Studies have  
shown that these products generally do not work as  
advertised. Unlike “hands-free” kits, these so-called  
“shields” may interfere with proper operation of the  
phone. The phone may be forced to boost its power to  
compensate, leading to an increase in RF absorption. In  
182  
Consumer Information on Wireless Phones  
February 2002, the Federal trade Commission (FTC)  
charged two companies that sold devices that claimed  
to protect wireless phone users from radiation with  
making false and unsubstantiated claims. According to  
FTC, these defendants lacked a reasonable basis to  
substantiate their claim.  
What about wireless phone interference with  
medical equipment?  
Radio frequency energy (RF) from wireless phones can  
interact with some electronic devices. For this reason,  
FDA helped develop a detailed test method to measure  
electromagnetic interference (EMI) of implanted cardiac  
pacemakers and defibrillators from wireless  
telephones. This test method is now part of a standard  
sponsored by the Association for the Advancement of  
Medical instrumentation (AAMI). The final draft, a  
joint effort by FDA, medical device manufacturers, and  
many other groups, was completed in late 2000. This  
standard will allow manufacturers to ensure that  
cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators are safe from  
wireless phone EMI. FDA has tested wireless phones  
and helped develop a voluntary standard sponsored  
by the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers  
(IEEE). This standard specifies test methods and  
performance requirements for hearing aids and  
wireless phones so that no interference occurs when a  
person uses a compatible phone and a compatible  
hearing aid at the same time. This standard was  
approved by the IEEE in 2000.  
FDA continues to monitor the use of wireless phones  
for possible interactions with other medical devices.  
Section 14: Health and Safety Information  
183  
Should harmful interference be found to occur, FDA  
will conduct testing to assess the interference and work  
to resolve the problem.

Road Safety  
Your wireless phone gives you the powerful ability to  
communicate by voice, almost anywhere, anytime. But  
an important responsibility accompanies the benefits of  
wireless phones, one that every user must uphold.  
When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility.  
When using your wireless phone behind the wheel of a  
184  
 
Road Safety  
car, practice good common sense and remember the  
following tips:  
1. Get to know your wireless phone and its features, such  
as speed dial and redial. If available, these features help  
you to place your call without taking your attention off  
the road.  
2. When available, use a hands-free device. If possible, add  
an additional layer of convenience and safety to your  
wireless phone with one of the many hands free  
accessories available today.  
3. Position your wireless phone within easy reach. Be able  
to access your wireless phone without removing your  
eyes from the road. If you get an incoming call at an  
inconvenient time, let your voice mail answer it for you.  
4. Let the person you are speaking with know you are  
driving; if necessary, suspend the call in heavy traffic or  
hazardous weather conditions. Rain, sleet, snow, ice  
and even heavy traffic can be hazardous.  
5. Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while  
driving. Jotting down a to do” list or flipping through  
your address book takes attention away from your  
primary responsibility, driving safely.  
6. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place  
calls when you are not moving or before pulling into  
traffic. Try to plan calls when your car will be stationary.  
If you need to make a call while moving, dial only a few  
numbers, check the road and your mirrors, then  
continue.  
Section 14: Health and Safety Information  
185  
7. Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations  
that may be distracting. Make people you are talking  
with aware you are driving and suspend conversations  
that have the potential to divert your attention from the  
road.  
8. Use your wireless phone to call for help. Dial 9-1-1 or  
other local emergency number in the case of fire, traffic  
accident or medical emergencies. Remember, it is a free  
call on your wireless phone!  
9. Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. If  
you see an auto accident, crime in progress or other  
serious emergency where lives are in danger, call 9-1-1  
or other local emergency number, as you would want  
others to do for you.  
10. Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency  
wireless assistance number when necessary. If you see  
a broken-down vehicle posing no serious hazard, a  
broken traffic signal, a minor traffic accident where no  
one appears injured, or a vehicle you know to be stolen,  
call roadside assistance or other special non-emergency  
number.  
The wireless industry reminds you to use your phone safely

Using Your Phone Near Other Electronic Devices  
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in  
any areaand always switch your phone off whenever it  
is forbidden to use it, or when it may cause interference  
or danger. When connecting the phone or any accessory  
to another device, read its user's guide for detailed  
safety instructions. Do not connect incompatible  
products.  
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment,  
users are advised that for the satisfactory operation of  
the equipment andfor the safety of personnel, it is  
recommended that the equipment should only be used  
in the normal operating position (held to your ear with  
the antenna pointing over your shoulder).  
UsingYourPhoneNearOtherElectronicDevices  
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from  
radio frequency (RF) signals. However, certain  
electronic equipment may not be shielded against the  
RF signals from your wireless phone. Consult the  
manufacturer to discuss alternatives.  
Pacemakers  
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a  
minimum distance of 15 cm (6 inches) be maintained  
between a wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid  
potential interference with the pacemaker.  
These recommendations are consistent with the  
independent research and recommendations of  
Wireless Technology Research.  
Section 14: Health and Safety Information  
187  
 
Persons with pacemakers:  
should always keep the phone more than 15 cm (6 inches) from  
their pacemaker when the phone is switched on.  
should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.  
should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize  
potential interference.  
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is  
taking place, switch your phone off immediately.  
Hearing Aids  
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some  
hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may  
wish to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to  
discuss alternatives.  
Other Medical Devices  
If you use any other personal medical devices, consult  
the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is  
adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your  
physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this  
information. Switch your phone off in health care  
facilities when any regulations posted in these areas  
instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities  
may be using equipment that could be sensitive to  
external RF energy.  
Vehicles  
RF signals may affect improperly installed or  
inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor  
vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its  
representative regarding your vehicle. You should also  
188  
Potentially Explosive Environments  
consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has  
been added to your vehicle.  
Posted Facilities  
Switch your phone off in any facility where posted  
notices require you to do so.  
Potentially Explosive Environments  
Switch your phone off when in any area with a  
potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs  
and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an  
explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even  
death.  
Users are advised to switch the phone off while at a  
refueling point (service station). Users are reminded of  
the need to observe restrictions on the use of radio  
equipment in fuel depots (fuel storage and distribution  
areas), chemical plants or where blasting operations  
are in progress.  
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are  
often but not always clearly marked. They include  
below deck on boats, chemical transfer or storage  
facilities, vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such  
as propane or butane), areas where the air contains  
chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal  
powders, and any other area where you would  
normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.  
Emergency Calls  
This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using  
radio signals, wireless and land line networks as well as  
Section 14: Health and Safety Information  
189  
   
user-programmed functions, which cannot guarantee  
connection in all conditions. Therefore, you should  
never rely solely on any wireless phone for essential  
communications (medical emergencies, for example).  
Remember, to make or receive any calls the phone must  
be switched on and in a service area with adequate  
signal strength. Emergency calls may not be possible on  
all wireless phone networks or when certain network  
services and/ or phone features are in use. Check with  
local Wireless Providers.  
To make an emergency call:  
1. If the phone is not on, switch it on.  
2. Key in the emergency number for your present location  
(for example, 911 or other official emergency number).  
Emergency numbers vary by location.  
3. Press the key.  
If certain features are in use (call barring, for example),  
you may first need to deactivate those features before  
you can make an emergency call. Consult this  
document and your local Wireless Provider.  
When making an emergency call, remember to give all  
the necessary information as accurately as possible.  
Remember that your phone may be the only means of  
communication at the scene of an accident; do not cut  
off the call until given permission to do so.

FCC Notice and Cautions  
FCC Notice  
The phone may cause TV or radio interference if used  
in close proximity to receiving equipment. The FCC can  
require you to stop using the phone if such interference  
cannot be eliminated.  
Vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as  
propane or butane) must comply with the National Fire  
Protection Standard (NFPA-58). For a copy of this  
standard, contact the National Fire Protection  
Association, One Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA  
02269, Attn: Publication Sales Division.  
Cautions  
Any changes or modifications to your phone not  
expressly approved in this document could void your  
warranty for this equipment, and void your authority  
to operate this equipment. Only use approved  
batteries, antennas and chargers. The use of any  
unauthorized accessories may be dangerous and void  
the phone warranty if said accessories cause damage or  
a defect to the phone.  
Although your phone is quite sturdy, it is a complex  
piece of equipment and can be broken. Avoid dropping,  
hitting, bending or sitting on it.  
Section 14: Health and Safety Information  
191  
 
Other Important Safety Information  
Only qualified personnel should service the phone or install the  
phone in a vehicle. Faulty installation or service may be  
dangerous and may invalidate any warranty applicable to the  
device.  
Check regularly that all wireless phone equipment in your  
vehicle is mounted and operating properly.  
Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases or explosive  
materials in the same compartment as the phone, its parts or  
accessories.  
For vehicles equipped with an air bag, remember that an air bag  
inflates with great force. Do not place objects, including both  
installed or portable wireless equipment in the area over the air  
bag or in the air bag deployment area. If wireless equipment is  
improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury  
could result.  
Switch your phone off before boarding an aircraft. The use of  
wireless phone in aircraft is illegal and may be dangerous to  
the aircraft's operation.  
Failure to observe these instructions may lead to the  
suspension or denial of telephone services to the offender, or  
legal action, or both.  
Product Performance  
Getting the Most Out of Your Signal Reception  
The quality of each call you make or receive depends  
on the signal strength in your area. Your phone informs  
you of the current signal strength by displaying a  
number of bars next to the signal strength icon. The  
more bars displayed, the stronger the signal.  
If you're inside a building, being near a window may  
give you better reception.  
192  
   
Product Performance  
Understanding the Power Save Feature  
If your phone is unable to find a signal after 15 minutes  
of searching, a Power Save feature is automatically  
activated. If your phone is active, it periodically  
rechecks service availability or you can check it yourself  
by pressing any key.  
Anytime the Power Save feature is activated, a message  
displays on the screen. When a signal is found, your  
phone returns to standby mode.  
Understanding How Your Phone Operates  
Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver.  
When it's turned on, it receives and transmits radio  
frequency (RF) signals. When you use your phone, the  
system handling your call controls the power level.  
This power can range from 0.006 watts to 0.2 watts in  
digital mode.  
Maintaining Your Phone's Peak Performance  
For the best care of your phone, only authorized  
personnel should service your phone and accessories.  
Faulty service may void the warranty.  
There are several simple guidelines to operating your  
phone properly and maintaining safe, satisfactory  
service.  
Hold the phone with the antenna raised, fully-extended and over  
your shoulder.  
Try not to hold, bend or twist the phone's antenna.  
Don't use the phone if the antenna is damaged.  
Speak directly into the phone's receiver.  
Section 14: Health and Safety Information  
193  
Avoid exposing your phone and accessories to rain or liquid  
spills. If your phone does get wet, immediately turn the power  
off and remove the battery. If it is inoperable, call Customer  
Care for service.  
Availability of Various Features/Ringtones  
Many services and features are network dependent and  
may require additional subscription and/ or usage  
charges. Not all features are available for purchase or  
use in all areas. Downloadable ringtones may be  
available at an additional cost. Other conditions and  
restrictions may apply. See your Wireless Provider for  
additional information.  
Battery Standby and Talk Time  
Standby and talk times will vary depending on phone  
usage patterns and conditions. Battery power  
consumption depends on factors such as network  
configuration, signal strength, operating temperature,  
features selected, frequency of calls, and voice, data,  
and other application usage patterns.  
Battery Precautions  
Never use any charger or battery that is damaged in any way.  
Use the battery only for its intended purpose.  
If you use the phone near the network's base station, it uses  
less power; talk and standby time are greatly affected by the  
signal strength on the cellular network and the parameters set  
by the network operator.  
Battery charging time depends on the remaining battery charge  
and the type of battery and charger used. The battery can be  
charged and discharged hundreds of times, but it will gradually  
wear out. When the operation time (talk time and standby time)  
194  
     
Care and Maintenance  
is noticeably shorter than normal, it is time to buy a new  
battery.  
If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself over  
time.  
Use only Samsung-approved batteries and recharge your  
battery only with Samsung-approved chargers. When a charger  
is not in use, disconnect it from the power source. Do not leave  
the battery connected to a charger for more than a week, since  
overcharging may shorten its life.  
Extreme temperatures will affect the charging capacity of your  
battery: it may require cooling or warming first.  
Do not leave the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a car in  
summer or winter conditions, as you will reduce the capacity  
and lifetime of the battery. Always try to keep the battery at  
room temperature. A phone with a hot or cold battery may  
temporarily not work, even when the battery is fully charged.  
Li-ion batteries are particularly affected by temperatures below  
0 °C (32 °F).  
Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short- circuiting can  
occur when a metallic object (coin, clip or pen) causes a direct  
connection between the + and - terminals of the battery (metal  
strips on the battery), for example when you carry a spare  
battery in a pocket or bag. Short-circuiting the terminals may  
damage the battery or the object causing the short-circuiting.  
Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local regulations.  
In some areas, the disposal of batteries in household or  
business trash may be prohibited. For safe disposal options for  
Li-Ion batteries, contact your nearest Samsung authorized  
service center. Always recycle. Do not dispose of batteries in a  
fire.  
Care and Maintenance  
Your phone is a product of superior design and  
craftsmanship and should be treated with care. The  
suggestions below will help you fulfill any warranty  
Section 14: Health and Safety Information  
195  
 
obligations and allow you to enjoy this product for  
many years  
Keep the phone and all its parts and accessories out of the  
reach of small children's.  
Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity and liquids contain  
minerals that will corrode electronic circuits.  
Do not use the phone with a wet hand. Doing so may cause an  
electric shock to you or damage to the phone.  
Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty areas, as its  
moving parts may be damaged.  
Do not store the phone in hot areas. High temperatures can  
shorten the life of electronic devices, damage batteries, and  
warp or melt certain plastics.  
Do not store the phone in cold areas. When the phone warms  
up to its normal operating temperature, moisture can form  
inside the phone, which may damage the phone's electronic  
circuit boards.  
Do not drop, knock or shake the phone. Rough handling can  
break internal circuit boards.  
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents or strong  
detergents to clean the phone. Wipe it with a soft cloth slightly  
dampened in a mild soap-and-water solution.  
Do not paint the phone. Paint can clog the device's moving  
parts and prevent proper operation.  
Do not put the phone in or on heating devices, such as a  
microwave oven, a stove or a radiator. The phone may explode  
when overheated.  
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna.  
Unauthorized antennas or modified accessories may damage  
the phone and violate regulations governing radio devices.  
If the phone, battery, charger or any accessory is not working  
properly, take it to your nearest qualified service facility. The  
personnel there will assist you, and if necessary, arrange for  
service.
